(Disney, 1984) A Walt Disney Company "Unfriendly Takeover" Petition. In 1984, there was an effort by outside investors to gain a majority of Disney Company stock, most likely to dissolve the Company and sell off its assets for profit. This petition circulated among Disney employees - independent of management - states their resolve to both resist this attempt, and sue the perpetrators for damages if they follow through. A very interesting window on both a pivotal moment in Walt Disney Company history, and a rare employee-driven initiative. Measuring 8.5"x11" the 5-page document is in very good condition exhibiting slight wear to edges and corners.
